Since ever more by-passes are created, this is the case only, where such evasions are still missing. In bucking home the German crying race does not only end, there changes also B 271 after 33 km of the Pfalz to Rhinehesse. Altogether however it pulls parts through of the pfälzischen and Rhine-hessian Weinbaugebietes in its entire process and follows thereby in the southern Rhinehesse of the Bruchkante of the upper Rhine ditch lying west.
